Summer\'s hazy days are just on the horizon, which means plenty of weddings, parties and opportunities to get glammed up for the longer evenings ahead. From loose chignons to pretty braids, take inspiration from these celebrities working summer\'s updo trend and give your look an instant update...

Taylor Swift

We love her naturally wavy hair and this relaxed chignon with loose defined curls falling around her face is a great way of injecting some understated sex appeal into your look.

Michelle Obama

Our favourite first lady gives her sleek bob an instant update with a neat side bun. By keeping the parting wide Mrs Obama prevents this look from being too severe.

Alexa Chung

Queen of style, Alexa pulls off that just-rolled-out-of-bed look with mussed-up elegant twists pinned into an unkempt bun for an edgy look.

Cate Blanchett

Cate\'s sophisticated short curls are the perfect complement to her vampy red lips. Add some glamour to your evening look by roughly tonging your hair and pulling it back into a loose bun.

Dita von Teese

Taking the quiff and ramping it up a notch, Dita adds some \'40s style to her look with this immaculate front bun. If you\'re feeling brave enough to pull off this look make sure you have a doughnut and a can of hairspray to hand for a sleek finish.

Heidi Klum

Supermodel Heidi Klum exhibits the perfect style for summer with plenty of backcombing to create body and a carefully pinned bun in the middle of the head. This is definitely a look we\'ll be copying!

Jennifer Lopez

Glossy, shiny hair? Check. Side swept fringe? Check. J.Lo brings all of the key ingredients together for the perfect low-slung timeless chignon.

Katherine Heigl

Updos aren\'t just for those with long hair, Katherine\'s short bob looks chic and sophisticated pulled back with a simple headband and fixed into place with plenty of kirby grips.

Charlize Theron

Charlize\'s low pinned ponytail is a great option if you don\'t want all of your hair scraped away from your face. Remember to keep things messy and use straighteners or tongs to create plenty of waves and volume.

Eva Longoria

Eva demonstrates that a ponytail doesn\'t just have to be the solution to a bad hair day. By winding around a strip of plaited hair to cover the band, Eva transforms an ordinary ponytail to a \'do fit for the red carpet.
